How to Open a Stuck Fuel Filler Door on an Audi

Model: Audi Audi Various
Part: Fuel cap

Video tutorial

This video demonstrates how to open a stuck fuel filler door on an Audi vehicle: the procedure is the same for all vehicles in the group, which unfortunately may also have a stuck cable that should open the flap in an emergency. This can happen, and if you find yourself without resources, it can be quite frustrating.

Fortunately, the YouTuber provides a solution: a good spray of WD-40 on the outer part of the door, where you can feel the lock, and then use a plastic tool to pry it open without scratching the bodywork, will allow you to open the flap in an emergency, which will then need to be repaired.
